C

an you believe it’s June already? The number of colleagues I have heard in the office asking the same question this week makes me think I’m not alone when it comes to feeling like this year has flown past at record speed. At this rate, it won’t be long before we are talking about Christmas again!

I love this time of year on the Sunshine Coast – the crisp mornings and evenings, stunning clear days, amazing winter sunsets, and of course, as the mercury dips, there is nothing better than curling up in front of the fire with a glass of red.

We have another great read for you this week including a great story by journalist Lucinda Dean about a new program at UniSC that is helping our veterans transition to university life (turn to page 10 for all the details). We also have seven pages of health and wellness tips to have you feeling your best this season as well as some of the best things to do on the Sunshine Coast during winter.

POWER BILLS SET TO SURGE AFTER TOP PRICE RESETS Households may have to pay $600 a year more despite government price caps and safety nets. WORDS AAP.

P

ower bills will surge by up to $600 annually for hundreds of thousands of Australian households under a new ceiling electricity price.

The default market offer, determined by the Australian Energy Regulator, fixes the maximum price retailers can charge customers in NSW, South Australia and southeast Queensland.

From July 1, residential customers will see price increases of 19.6 to 24.9 per cent,

depending on their region.

NSW customers on the default offer can expect to see prices rise by $440 to $594 annually, depending on their region, while relevant households in southeast Queensland could end up paying an extra $402.

In South Australia, residential customers can expect prices to increase by about $512.

Small business customers are facing rises of 14.7 per cent to 28.9 per cent.

About nine per cent of customers are charged the default market rate, which effectively acts as a safety net to ensure domestic users are not overcharged.

Most customers are on lower, discounted rates, but the default offer also serves as a benchmark for wider prices.

The regulator said high wholesale energy costs continued to drive up retail electricity prices.

Australian Energy Regulator chair Clare Savage says the agency considered the cost-of-living pressures faced by households and businesses, as well as the need for retailers to recover their costs.

“That’s why it’s important the (default offer) provides a safety net for those who might not have shopped around for a better power deal,” she says.

“No one wants to see rising prices and we recognise this is a difficult time, that’s why it’s important for consumers to shop around for a better deal.”

The federal government wasted no time clarifying that its interventions in the energy market, including price caps on wholesale coal and gas, were insulating customers from even higher energy bills.

Government modelling suggests the market interventions have shaved $492 off the default offer price for residential customers and up to $1310 for small businesses.

Energy Minister Chris Bowen says customers were facing price rises of between 40 and 50 per cent before the government took action.

“These are big increases, but as the regulator made clear, without the intervention of the Albanese government they would have been much bigger,” he says.

The energy regulator chair confirmed the caps had kept prices under control.

Ms Savage told ABC radio some

households will be eligible for energy rebates co-funded by state and federal governments, although she was unable to advise how many on the default offer were in line for rebates.

The federal government committed $3 billion towards direct energy price relief in the May budget.

But the opposition has already attacked the government for failing to bring down energy prices.

Energy spokesman Ted O’Brien says the government can’t claim the lowerthan-forecast increase as a win, as before the election, it promised cheaper bills.

“When the government says it could have been worse, it’s the government comparing its set of dumb policies now to its really dumb policies only a few months ago,” Mr O’Brien says.

Mr Bowen says the government had not given up on its pledge to reduce power bills by $275 by 2025.

“I will not walk away from efforts to reduce power prices by rolling out more renewable energy, because renewable energy is the cheapest form of energy,” he says.

The Greens welcome the government’s interventions but say they need to go further on the gas tax changes for giant energy companies and use the added revenue to help struggling Australians.

Greens MP Max Chandler-Mather says gas corporations need to be slapped with a windfall tax.

“There’s a question of winners and losers,” he told reporters in Canberra.

“The biggest winners are the gas corporations, making billions of dollars in wartime profits and continuing to drive up the price of energy bills for people across this country.”

The default market offer price changes come into effect on July 1.

Most of us can’t control the size of our pupils unless we do something like alter the amount of light that is directed into our eyes. However, in a study published in the International Journal of Psychophysiology in 2021, researchers observed a man who can change the size of his pupil on command. Currently, he is the only individual known to be able to do this.

By the numbers Geocaching is an international game that involves players deciphering clues and going on stash-seeking adventures, using GPS and a geocaching app – kind of like a digital/analogue combination scavenger hunt. There’s even a geocache target to be found on the International Space Station.

FEATURE STORY

Marching towards a new life A purpose-designed short program starting at UniSC will help military veterans find a pathway towards civilian life. WORDS: Lucinda Dean.

T

he University of the Sunshine Coast is poised to help military veterans ‘MAPP’ out new civilian careers thanks to a new Military Academic Pathway Program starting late June.

UniSC is now taking applications from veterans and current serving military personnel who have signalled an intention to transition to civilian careers.

The free four-week university entry program aims to introduce veterans to university life and set them up for successful tertiary study.

MAPP is the only education-toemployment pathway program for military veterans of its kind in Australia.

It was successfully piloted by Flinders University in 2019 with input from the Department of Veteran Affairs and funded by the DVA’s Supporting Younger Veterans Program.

The pilot was established by Flinders University Professor Ben Wadham who was a former infantryman in the Australian Regular Army (1987-1992).

He’s now the Director of the Open Door:

Understanding and Supporting Service Personnel and their Families research initiative in the College of Education, Psychology, and Social Work.

Flinders University MAPP has now clocked up six intakes with a total of 150 students completing the program, 80 per cent of whom said they would go on to tertiary study.

Professor Wadham said students were largely drawn to health sciences with a significant interest in paramedics followed by nursing. IT and psychology were quite popular too and smaller numbers were attracted to engineering and teaching.

The university-entry program, which was designed by veterans for veterans, is now being rolled out to UniSC and the University of Central Queensland.

Starting at UniSC on June 19, MAPP combines online learning with oncampus face-to-face tutorials from June 26-30.

UniSC Discipline Lead for Engineering, Dr Adrian McCallum has been instrumental in establishing MAPP at the University. The 52-year-old is

“The Sunshine Coast has one of the greatest number of veterans in Australia” Professor Ben Wadham

currently an army reservist who had a decades long career in the Australian army, airforce and navy after joining ADFA as a 17-year-old.

Dr McCallum says it makes sense to offer the program at UniSC as the Sunshine Coast has one of the greatest number of veterans in Australia, between 15,000 and 17,000 or 5.5 per cent of the ex-military population. A large portion of this cohort is aged 18-to-24 years.

People entering the military typically enlist at 17 or 18 years old and the average length of service for noncommissioned officers is four years and eight years for commissioned officers.

Although 6000 people leave the Australian Defence Forces each year, the focus tends to be on the 20 per cent who are ‘broken’. prevalent are the sad news stories in the media about those veterans who succumb to suicide, who battle PTSD, homelessness, gambling and addiction. The majority of veterans actually negotiate reintegration into civilian life successfully but the public doesn’t hear too often about these good news stories. Dr Wadham talks about myweeklypreview.com.au

29/05/2023 9:34:01 AM

FEATURE STORY

Dr Adrian McCallum veterans as “sovereign assets” and about their “social return on investment”.

“That means focusing on their capacities and their skills and experience that they’ve gained in their military service, to recognise the national tax investment into those veterans and to recognise that if we create sound and beneficial transition pathways then the country gets a return on investment and the veterans and their families get a return on investment in terms of wellbeing,” he says.

According to UniSC’s Dr McCallum, the greatest struggle people leaving the military face is lack of identity and lack of purpose because they’ve come from such a structured, organised, supportive environment, the military family, to a void of nothing.

“When you come from the military, you know who you are,” he says. “Yes, you are part of a machine but you’re all part of that big family and you are in that role because you want to serve Australia and look after your mates.

“There’s a whole purpose piece around your service and when you leave the military your lack of purpose is very evident and it’s very hard to pick yourself up and work out who Adrian McCallum

is because for so long you’ve relied upon the military providing you with that identity.”

He said MAPP really is an opportunity for veterans to think very hard about who are they post Defence, where do they want to go and how can they get there with UniSC’s assistance.

Professor Wadham says while MAPP is an educational pathway for every veteran, more specifically it’s for those veterans who maybe don’t see education as a traditional path to take.

“They may come out of an arms course, like the infantry or armoured or artillery, where there’s that tension between guns and philosophy, you’re here to use your weapon not get educated, so many of those people will come out (and they’re mainly men) and not consider higher education as a pathway.

“What MAPP says is: ‘This is a real possibility for everyone in the defence force. You have skills and experience that aren’t real world recognised but which equip you to do well at university and to go onto a career that you may not have considered, or that defence may not have prepared you for.’”

Dr McCallum says civilian employers also need to be educated about the valuable skillset veterans bring to a job such as organisation, planning, leadership and communication, and look at all these things even before even looking at a veteran’s trade certificate.

“It’s conditioning both sides to the other – so the military is aware of the civilian world; and the civilian world is aware of the military – there’s definitely a gap to bridge.”

UniSC Civil Engineering third year student Samuel Aitken says that the support of other veterans to make the transition to university has been vital to his success so far.

“Meeting Adrian, who was also a veteran, meant that I had someone who understood where I was coming from and spoke my language,” Mr Aitken says.

A 2013 diagnosis of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder following a posting to Afghanistan had left him low in confidence and daunted by the prospect of becoming a student.

“I never thought that I would contribute to society again,” Mr Aitken says.

“I’d never been in the university environment before. I didn’t know what a lecture theatre looked like or what a tutorial was like, and I’d been out of school for seven years so I’d forgotten how to study.

“In the army, you feel you have a sense of purpose and like you’re achieving something and everyone’s working together and coming back to the civilian world you don’t always feel like you have a purpose.”

Mr Aitken says his work as a geotechnical engineer at Tectonic is helping him find that purpose and sense of contribution.

“I never thought that I would contribute to society again, but just knowing that there are opportunities and that I have something to offer has helped me find my feet again,” he says.

WHEN CAN I STUDY? Starting June 19, MAPP combines online learning with on-campus face-to-face tutorials from June 26-30.

It will include a campus tour plus a meet-and-greet lunch with veteran including staff and some who are already students. The intention is to help MAPP students build their internal networks of support so if they choose to study at UniSC, they’d know there are veterans who’ve gone through similar experiences who can support them.

What will I learn?

Students will learn academic writing, critical thinking and effective communication as well as be introduced to the University and its support services. They will also hear from experts at UniSC’s world-class hub for mental health research, the Thompson Institute.

Am I eligible?

You will need to provide proof of military status or discharge. If you are still serving in the military, you will also need to provide a confirmation letter from your military department approving study leave or time off.

How do I apply?

Applications close June 14. For more information, visit usc.edu.au/study/ military-academic-pathwayprogram-mapp

PLASTIC POLLUTION REDUCTION IN FOCUS World Environment Day prompts calls for greater use of existing technologies to cut plastic waste by 80 per cent. WORDS Caitlin Zerafa.

E

very year in June an important environmental day is recognised calling on the world to come together for the sake of the

planet.

World Environment Day is a United Nations initiative that falls on June 5. In

2023 the global event will focus around beating plastic pollution.

According to a new report by UN Environment Programme (UNEP), plastic pollution could reduce by 80 per cent by 2040 if countries and companies make moderate policy and market shifts using

existing technologies.

The report, Turning off the Tap: How the world can end plastic pollution and create a circular economy outlines a roadmap to reduce the impact of plastic pollution.

It was released ahead of the second round of negotiations in Paris, that wraps up on June 2 with on a global agreement on the issue.

Closer to home, leading environmental advocacy group Sunshine Coast Environment Council (SCEC) is calling on locals to ‘go green’ this June.

The ‘Go Green for June’ campaign aims to encourage individuals, schools, community groups and businesses to hold their own event.

The campaign forms part of the SCEC’s World Environment Day (WED) festival, which runs from June 3 to 11 with a range of community events.

WED festival manager Benjamin Child says the events will raise money for the SCEC to continue its work of protecting the local environment.

“By registering an event for Going Green for June, you will be making a meaningful contribution to the protection of the Sunshine Coast’s greatest assets: our natural environment,” he says.

“Help us to continue to give the beaches, rivers, bushlands and forest a

voice on the Sunshine Coast so that current and future generations can enjoy a positive future.”

Mr Child says some event ideas can include an environmentally-friendly workplace morning tea, beach clean ups, fun walks or runs, swim races or picnics.

To celebrate World Environment Day, Sunshine Coast Council and Noosa Council have teamed up with BlockTexx and St Vincent de Paul Society to hold a community textile recycling event.

The Give a Sheet for the Planet event is calling on the community to clean out linen cupboards to give old sheets of all sizes a second chance at life.

Items can be dropped off at Chancellor State College, Secondary Campus, Sippy Downs Drive, Sippy Downs or Tewantin State School, 10 Werin Street, Tewantin, on June 11.

All donated linen will be converted into valuable, high-grade recycled materials by BlockTexx to be used by Australian manufacturers to create new products.

These include hydro-mulch, geosynthetic fabrics and building materials.

CEOS READY TO SLEEP ROUGH TO HELP THE HOMELESS

PIE COMPETITION KICKS OFF AS FUNDRAISER FOR SICK CHILDREN With last night’s kick off for the 2023 State of Origin competition, a Sunshine Coast bakery is braced for a competition of its own – and all for a good cause.

Beefy’s has proudly pulled on the maroon again, challenging NSW’s Glenorie Bakery for the annual Pie of Origin award.

It will be state against state to raise the most funds for cutting-edge equipment, vital research and on-the-ground support for sick and injured children.

2023 marks the eighth year that Beefy’s has raised funds for the Children’s Hospital Foundation.

“Every year, our success comes back to the generous support of our loyal customers,” Beefy’s managing director Mark Hobbs says.

“During the time we’ve been involved in Pie of Origin, they’ve helped us raise almost $125,000 to help sick kids across the state.

“No matter how you look at that, it’s been a mighty Queensland effort.”

Beefy’s will donate $1 from every limited-edition Big Queenslander Pie sold during the Pie of Origin series to the overall fundraising tally.

The fundraiser will run until July 12.

Sunshine Coast Business Council members are gearing up for the 2023 Vinnies CEO Sleepout to raise awareness and funds for the more than 1650 people experiencing homelessness on the Sunshine Coast each night.

With homelessness becoming an unwelcome reality for many on the Sunshine Coast, the Vinnies CEO Sleepout on June 22 will raise urgent financial support to provide accommodation, food and essential services to the most vulnerable in the community.

Sunshine Coast Business Council (SCBC) chair Sandy Zubrinich says she is looking forward to this year’s event, taking place outside the Maroochydore Surf Club, where it is expected representatives of local businesses, community members and dignitaries will spend a night with just a sleeping bag, a sheet of cardboard, a cup of soup and slice of bread.

“We have men, women, youths and young children homeless on the Sunshine Coast every day and raising money for them is very much worth one cold and uncomfortable night,” Ms Zubrinich says.

Sandy Zubrinich, Matthew Byrne, William Wilson and Kate McCreery-Carr.

All funds raised will go towards providing emergency accommodation for local families who would otherwise be sleeping rough.

The Vinnies CEO Sleepout is a chance for the Sunshine Coast community to unite and make a difference in the lives of those experiencing homelessness.

The SCBC encourages all individuals and businesses to get involved by taking part or donating to the cause.

By the numbers Recent Salvation Army research reveals 47 per cent of people who turn to the Salvos for help cannot afford essential healthcare. Meanwhile, 57 per cent are skipping meals to save money and 77 per cent of those in need are experiencing housing stress.

SALVOS CALL FOR SUPPORT Cost-of-living pressures push more Queenslanders than ever to seek help from the Salvation Army as a ‘last line of defence’.

C

oast residents are being asked to dig deep for this year’s Red Shield Appeal, with too many Queenslanders struggling to make ends meet.

This year’s appeal aims to raise $5.5 million in Queensland to help fund more than 150 services across the state.

In 2022, the Salvation Army Sunshine

Coast region assisted more than 1750 people and provided more than 3600 sessions of care to people in need.

The organisation also distributed nearly $246,000 in financial assistance including gift cards, vouchers and household bill assistance to people in hardship.

Salvation Army Queensland divisional commander Major Gavin Watts says the

• WILLS • WILL DISPUTES • WILL COMPLICATIONS • WILL LITIGATION • DECEASED ESTATE ADMINISTRATION • CLAIMS ON DECEASED ESTATES

need is greater than ever before.

“For many Queenslanders who are doing it tough, the Salvos are often their last line of defence,” Major Watts says.

“We will always be there to give them a hand, whatever their circumstances may be, so that nobody has to struggle alone.”

New research to coincide with the appeal reveals that in the past 12 months, 91 per cent of Queenslanders who reached out to The Salvation Army are struggling to afford basic living necessities.

Of this, nearly 71 per cent of households with children are living $200 below the poverty line, meaning that after paying for essential living costs, families are living on $5 a day for other expenses.

To donate to The Salvation Army’s Red Shield Appeal, or if you need support, visit salvationarmy.org.au or call 13 SALVOS (13 72 58). Donations can also be made at any Salvos Store.

INTERSECTION UPGRADE TO IMPROVE ROAD SAFETY A busy intersection near a school, church and community centre has been upgraded with new traffic lights and pedestrian crossings.

The upgraded intersection at Queen and Bower streets in Caloundra will improve community safety, particularly for students of the nearby Caloundra State High School.

The upgrades include new signalised intersection and two raised pedestrian crossings.

A new three-metre-wide shared pathway running adjacent to the Queen Street service lane has also been completed.

Sunshine Coast Council division two Councillor Terry Landsberg says the changes will improve community safety and help relieve traffic congestion at peak periods.

“Traffic movements during the school drop-off and pick-up times will now be safer and easier thanks to new dedicated turning lanes and traffic signals,” he says.

“It’s been great to see so many children walking or riding to school along the new shared pathway from Bower Street to Ulm Street, running along the Queen Street service lane.”

Wildlife signage in Twin Waters New wildlife road signs will be installed at four existing locations on Nojoor Road and Ocean Drive.

Sunshine Coast Riding for the Disabled is one of the Sunshine Coast’s best volunteer organisations and last week, I was fortunate to spend some time at their facility in North Arm.

We want to create safe road environments for both motorists and our precious wildlife population. If you comne across injured wildlife, call 1300-ANIMAL (1300 264 624).

I encourage you to join them as a volunteer. You don’t need experience with horses or disabilities, as there are plenty of non-horse related activities like maintenance, administration or retail.

Major grants awarded

Matt Stoeckel, Visit Sunshine Coast CEO

WINTER IS HERE, OR IS IT?

Council announced almost $600,000 to support 100 local projects in its latest Major Grants round.

The funding supports many important community projects and several Division 8 community groups.

SCRDA’S next orientation and induction will be Wednesday, June 7, from 1 to 4pm. Find out more on their Facebook page @scrda.

These include ChaplainWatch Inc, which will buy equipment for NightWatch teams to reduce response times to call-outs in the entertainment precincts of Maroochydore, Mooloolaba and Caloundra.

Plan to help macropods Kangaroos, wallabies and pademelons are much-loved animals of our coastal area.

The draft Sunshine Coast Macropod Conservation Plan is open for comment until June 5.

Aus Living Support was funded to buy equipment to establish a low-cost or free food bank service at Evans Street, Maroochydore, for people experiencing or at risk of experiencing homelessness.

Have your say on what should be prioritised over the next three years via haveyoursay.sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au

It does make me chuckle when I hear our radio announcers talking in the morning about how cold it is: of course the thing with temperature is that it’s all relative.

This point really hit home for me on the weekend when I got a call from a friend in Melbourne. I answered the call as I was walking the kids down to the beach for an afternoon swim, while he on the other hand was just lighting a fire at his home.

My kids thought the water was, of course, “freezing” and at 22.2 degrees I went and did some research to prove it was more the case they have gone a little bit soft after moving up from south of the border.

My research showed that at no stage of the year does Melbourne’s average sea temperature get above what ours is in the middle of winter. In other words, their hottest is still cooler than our

coldest sea temps.

Importantly winter is one of the slowest times of the year for our tourism industry, opening up a lot of potential to fill our low periods with visitors from our southern states as well with Kiwis.

A winter break to the Sunshine Coast for people “down south” is a bit of a no-brainer. Whilst our weather doesn’t define why visitors come for a holiday here … it sure doesn’t hurt!

FROM THE MAYOR

Making tracks together: plan for recovery of our beloved turtles The community is being called on to unite to help save critically endangered and vulnerable species.

A

new plan has Sunshine Coast Council on the right track to help save one of the region’s most beloved marine animals.

Its goal is to support the recovery of self-sustaining populations of marine turtles on the Sunshine Coast by reducing threats, improving habitat quality and strengthening community-based management.

It is particularly focused on the nesting and hatchling success of the critically endangered loggerhead and vulnerable green turtle populations – the two species that arrive every year to lay their eggs on our Sunshine Coast beaches.

Now, Sunshine Coast Council is calling on the community to view the draft

Protecting Maroochydore Beach If you see a pipeline with sand gushing out and some excavators along Maroochydore Beach soon – it’s okay! It’s part of Council’s plan to look after this beach and protect it from severe erosion.

Sunshine Coast Marine Turtle Conservation Plan and help prioritise some of its actions.

Sunshine Coast Council Environment and Liveability Portfolio Councillor Peter Cox says the plan envisions a future where marine turtles are not only surviving but thriving on the Sunshine Coast, co-existing in harmony with people.

“The populations of loggerhead turtle species nesting along the Queensland coastline – including Sunshine Coast beaches – has reduced significantly since the 1970s to the point that they are now critically endangered,” Cr Cox says.

“Three generations of sustained population growth are needed to remove marine turtles from the threatened species list.

“With only one in 1000 turtle hatchlings surviving to adulthood, every nest and every egg is critical to the ongoing survival and recovery of this critically endangered population. We can all play a part to achieve the plan’s vision and live in a wildlife-friendly biosphere.”

A strong partnership across the region has led to the plan’s development with Sunshine Coast Council, councillors, Kabi Kabi First Nation Peoples, Queensland Government, an independent Technical Advisory Panel and community leaders of TurtleCare, Coolum and North Shore Coast Care and Bribie Island Turtle Trackers volunteers all collaborating on the draft plan.

Visit Council’s Have Your Say website before June 16.

Can you believe that the average household is estimated to have around 20 kilograms of old linen stashed in their cupboards, most of which will end up as unusable donations or landfill?

To celebrate World Environment Day, Sunshine Coast Council and Noosa Shire Council have teamed up with BlockTexx and St Vincent de Paul Society to hold a community textile recycling event, Give a Sheet for the Planet.

This event invites the community to be part of the solution by cleaning out old, unwanted linen while helping to create a cleaner, greener environment and sustainable future.

Just one truck load of linen collected as part of this event will divert 10 tonnes of textile waste from landfill and will remove carbon emissions equivalent to taking 65 cars off the road for a year.

Donations can then be used to create products such as hydro-mulch, fertiliser, shopping baskets and geosynthetic fabrics.

I encourage the community to take part in this event which supports our vision of being Australia’s most sustainable region – Healthy. Smart.

Creative.

For more details, including dates and drop-off locations, please visit Council’s events website.

We widen the beach to keep a 50 metre buffer between the sea and the roads, park and playgrounds nearby providing protection from severe erosion caused by storms, swells and weather events.

We’ve been doing this since 2013, with great results. Work is expected to be complete by the end of September and we thank-you for your patience.

To find out more, head to the current projects page on Council’s website.

This is incomplete without you is an experiential installation which, through video, sculpture, sound and text, invites audiences to consider the state of the passenger in transit.

Gallery curator Jo Duke explains the exhibition pushes the boundaries and encourages audiences to take a deeper dive into their everyday experiences.

“The experience really is quite unique – what Ruby does beautifully is capture a

journey, bringing in glimpses of light and sound that represent our movement from one space to another,” Ms Duke says.

“This is incomplete without you draws parallels between the poetics of transit and the body as a vehicle in which the ‘self’ is merely a passenger.

“During that experience we’re invited to explore our mental and physical connection during transit and whether we really can be in two places at once.”

This exhibition, along with A Wearable Canvas, is on until June 25.

AUSTRALIAN ROMANTIC & CLASSICAL ORCHESTRA – BEETHOVEN AND NONET In the first half of the 19th century, music moved out of the palaces of Europe and into its living rooms, with an explosion in publishing houses making the latest works accessible to everyone from princes to paupers. As with so many developments in music, Beethoven was at the centre of things: his Septet was a huge critical and popular success, and demand for the sheet music was a great boost to his publisher’s business. The piece proved an impossible act to follow for the next 50 years, that is until Louise Farrenc’s Nonet, in 1849.

When: Sunday, June 4, 3pm.

Where: The Events Centre, 20 Minchinton Street, Caloundra.

MY OPINION

IT’S A STATE OF THE HEART

THANK GOD FOR THE SALVOS

Jane Stephens considers the difference between those born in Queensland and those less fortunate, such as her.

Ashley Robinson recalls the times the Salvation Army has crossed his path and finds inspiration in the launch of its annual appeal.

T

here is no better place to live on the planet than Queensland.

We proudly call ourselves Banana Benders and even align our identity come State of Origin time with that omnipresent pest, the cane toad.

We loudly love our big sky, our wide spaces and jostling coastal fringe, our sticky tropical and sub-tropical clime, our often-quirky past and being judged as unsophisticated by the southern states.

Queensland Day is June 6, which this year falls on a rather inglorious Tuesday.

It is the date of our official separation from New South Wales as an independent colony in 1859, when we were finally freed of the Blues. It is a day to actively appreciate our good fortune to find ourselves here, to list the wonders we share and to honour the people and things that make our state great.

My parents moved to Queensland when I was approaching my teen years, moving first to the tropical north and then sliding down to the south-east corner.

And while I unashamedly tell the world how grateful I am that I am that I live here, I am sharply aware there are two kinds of Queenslanders: those born here and the rest of us.

“Queensland born, Queensland bred.

When I die I’ll be Queensland dead” reads a bumper sticker at one of those kitsch, gimmicky retail outlets. Good for you, I mumble a little jealously.

But is being birthed into a specific longitude and latitude an accomplishment?

As a ‘blow in’, I suggest that as we mark Queensland’s legal re-birth as a separate entity, we should remember that we humans don’t get a say in where we make our debut in the world.

Those of us who chose Queensland to make our homes might never be as true Queenslanders as those who were born here, but we can love it just as fiercely.

We can want the best for it, sing its praises to visitors and prickle with protectiveness when one of its many virtues is threatened.

We Queenslanders by choice seek to know about its past and help contribute to its future. It is an active kind of gratitude.

And those of us who embrace Queensland as an intrinsic part of our identity, who give our heart to our adopted home, bleed maroon just like those Queensland-born. We all have the privilege of being part of Queensland’s story.

T

hey say there is no such thing as a free feed which is exactly right, someone is paying somewhere. I mention this as I attended Alex Surf Club for the launch of the Red Shield Appeal for the Salvation Army which the club has hosted for about the last 10 years.

The deal is the club provides a free breakfast, local business folk bring guests for a free breakfast and Jo Desmond MCs the event wonderfully. There is usually a guest speaker and a person that has been assisted by the Salvos and then you get to donate to what is the most worthy cause I know.

The guest speakers this year were Olympic gold medallist Natalie Cook, who was amazing, tying sport and life’s ups and downs together beautifully and Mark, someone who has been helped by the Salvos. Two completely different stories, one presented by a pure professional and another delivered from the heart. With all due respect to the other nine years, these two were the best.

One of the most moving parts was Mark telling the story about being homeless and coming across a CEO sleep out ironically to

raise money for homelessness. He went to use the toilets at the venue but was turned away as they were exclusively for all the wonderful CEOs sleeping out.

I totally understand how that could happen but it highlighted to me about how conscious we should be of other people’s situations.

The Salvation Army has always been close to my heart. From my early days as a kid spending Christmas in Maroochydore and following the Salvos around the streets listening to them singing Christmas carols to being in the pub when they used to come into every Friday night with their War Cry paper and rattling their donation box.

In between all that, my dear Father told me on more than one occasion, “the only religion worth its salt is the Salvos.” Thank you to the Alex members for their support of the Red Shield Appeal and thank you to all who attended, thanks to Jo, Nat and Mark for making it a great occasion. As a workmate used to say to me, “there but by the grace of God go I,” meaning never judge anyone. It could be you walking in their shoes (if they have any). Dig deep and Thank God for the Salvos.

MY OPINION

A

IN PURSUIT OF SUPERMUM

MORTGAGE PAIN A GENERATIONAL WOE

Sami Muirhead laments that trying to be everything, everywhere, all at once will nearly always end in tears - or tripping over.

The argument that young home buyers have it worse than their parents is flawed. WORDS: Terry Ryder, Hotspotting Director.

s I fell down the bus steps in front of 90 Year three students, I swore I would never try to be Super Mum ever again.

Let me rewind to earlier that week when my eight-year-old boy begged me to attend his school excursion to Sealife at Mooloolaba.

I had a million things to do and a hair dressing appointment and of course work to get to and explained to my third-born child that Mumma could just not swing it today. His little brown eyes looked so disappointed, and his forlorn expression stayed with me as I drove away from school drop off. The guilt got the better of me and I hatched a plan to fast track all my jobs that morning so I could swing past the school excursion and still make it to work on time.

Of course, the world conspired against me and after one flat tyre, a quick dog walk and lots of rushing, I was driving like a mad woman into the Mooloolaba carpark feeling like I could pull off this great surprise. I ran into Sealife afraid I had missed the entire thing. Indeed, the kids were filing onto their bus to return to school when Mrs East spotted me and asked what I was doing. By this time, I was

sweating and hoping my surprise would be worth the effort. “I know I am late, but could I just see Augie before you go, so he knows I really tried to make it here for him?” I asked. The divine teacher looked at me and said, “Sami, parents weren’t invited today.” My little rat son had lied to me and told me all the other parents were going and not even one was there. I

“The guilt got the better of me and I hatched a plan to fast track all my jobs shouted down the bus aisle to my boy at the other end of the vehicle and said, “Well, remember this at your 21st because I moved heaven and earth to be here for you today” and as I laughed at my epic fail I backed out of the bus. I tumbled down the stairs and landed on the footpath.

I stood there thinking what a parent failure it was in the end. The next day was the athletic’s carnival. I missed it but my mum friends who went were quick to remind me that parents were invited to that one.

O

ne of the recurring themes in news media about real estate affordability is the claim that today’s young buyers have it a lot harder than their parents did when they were buying their first home, perhaps a quarter of a century ago.

But, like so many things espoused in mainstream media about residential property, it really isn’t true – not when you look fully at all the factors in play and crunch the numbers.

Recent research – which used data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics and the Reserve Bank of Australia – found that Millennials actually have it easier than Baby Boomers did when it comes to the portion of weekly income spent on the monthly mortgage.

As one of those Baby Boomers buying my first property back in the late 1980s, I can testify to how hard it was – primarily because interest rates were so incredibly high and there were considerably fewer loan options.

And that really is the crucial difference.

Here’s what the numbers say, comparing the present-day situation with the typical scenario faced by Baby Boomers buying a home in 1990.

The median dwelling value back then was around $107,000, compared with $700,000 today.

A 20 per cent deposit was about $21,000, compared to $140,000 today.

On that basis, it took five years to save

that deposit, based on 15 per cent of average weekly earnings, in 1990 – and today the same scenario would take 10 years, twice as long.

So far it looks like it’s much harder today than it was a quarter of a century ago.

But the big difference is with interest rates. In 1990, you typically had a mortgage interest rate of 17 per cent – yes, that’s right.

Today, even with the 10 interest rate rises recently, you’re likely to be paying around 5.5 per cent.

In 1990, a typical mortgage cost $280 per week, compared to $730 per week now.

And, based on full-time adult average weekly earnings, that was 53 per cent of income spent on the mortgage back in 1990, versus 40 per cent today.

So, according to these numbers, the typical Baby Boomer with a mortgage was having to allocate more than half their income to the loan repayments, compared to 40 per cent of income now.

So, on that basis, Millennials have it easier than their parents did back then.

It’s that time of year again. The breeze is feeling cool and thermometer dips below 10 degrees by night. Jumpers are on and PJs are long.

It’s no surprise that fewer people come to the skin cancer doctor with new or changing spots this time of year. Fewer people take the time to check their skin.

Seeing spots later can lead to delayed diagnosis of skin cancer; meaning larger treatments and more complications.

The great thing is that it just takes a few minutes to do a self skin check. Here’s what you do: SCAN Your Skin by looking over all of your skin from head to toe; including your back, behind ears, beneath underwear, between toes. You will need a good mirror or a partner to help with the tricky areas.

You are looking for anything Sore, Changing, Abnormal or New (hence “SCAN”).

Any spots that fit the bill and aren’t going away (like pimples, bites and other irritations do) in 5-6 weeks need to be reviewed promptly. If you have any you are already aware aren’t going away, get them checked now.

Skin checks are a good way of finding out what is normal or not. How often you have them depends on your level of risk.

At SunLife Skin Cancer Care Centre, we offer both spot checks and full body skin checks and have availability for new patients.

This week we are delighted to welcome the wonderful Dr Bronnie Hautala who has moved back to the Sunshine Coast to join us.

Dr Bronnie has a wealth of training and experience in skin cancer care. Her main passion is early detection of melanoma and she’d be delighted to look after your skin. sunlifeskincancercare.com.au

BLACK SEED OIL AND HAY FEVER Black seed oil, also known as Nigella sativa, has been used for centuries in traditional medicine for its various health benefits. Among its many uses, black seed oil has been shown to possess antihistamine properties that can help alleviate symptoms of allergies and asthma.

Histamines are natural chemicals in the body that are released in response to allergens, such as pollen or dust mites. They cause a range of symptoms, including itching, swelling, and difficulty breathing. Antihistamines work by blocking the effects of histamines in the body, thus reducing these symptoms.

Black seed oil contains compounds such as thymoquinone, which have been shown to have antihistamine properties. A study published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology found that black seed oil was effective in reducing symptoms of allergic rhinitis, including sneezing, itching, and congestion. Another study published in the International Journal of Immunopharmacology found that black seed oil was effective in reducing airway inflammation and improving lung function in people with asthma.

Black seed oil may also help reduce the severity of allergic reactions. A study published in the International Journal of Health Sciences found that black seed oil was effective in reducing the severity of anaphylactic shock in rats. Anaphylactic shock is a severe allergic reaction that can be life-threatening.

Black seed oil has a plethora of other health benefits including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. It may also help lower cholesterol and blood glucose (sugar) levels and improve liver function.

When using black seed oil as an antihistamine, it is important to follow the recommended dosage and consult with a health care professional if you have any underlying health conditions or are taking medications.

Black seed oil may interact with certain medications, such as blood thinners and anti-diabetic drugs.

Our naturopaths and nutritionists are on hand seven days a week to help with any health concerns you may be experiencing.

5 REASONS TO LOVE BLACK SEED OIL 1. Helps to fight inflammation, which is wonderful not only internally, but with topical acne and psoriasis.

2. Can help with asthma and allergies opening airways and easing symptoms.

3. Assists with controlling blood sugar levels.

4. Contains high antioxidant levels.

5. Black Seed Oil contains the bioactive compound thymoquinone, which has been known to stimulate tissue growth and healing, as well as a powerful anti-inflammatory effects.

CATARACTS – WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

INJURED SPORTSPEOPLE NEED A TEAM TO HEAL

A cataract is a clouding of the normally transparent lens of the eye and is usually a consequence of getting older.

Most age-related cataracts develop slowly so you may not notice any problems with your vision until the cataract is fairly advanced.

There are some cases where cataracts develop quickly (over several months).

Having regular eye examinations with your optometrist is the best way to determine if you do have cataract and if you need an opinion from an eye specialist on whether cataract surgery is advisable.

Cataract can affect your vision in ways other than just making it blurry and often these other symptoms are apparent earlier.

Some of the other symptoms of cataract include glare sensitivity, faded colours, double or fractured vision through one eye, haloes or star-bursts around lights, especially at night, problems with night vision and driving, the feeling there is a film over your eyes or glasses and the need to constantly wipe your glasses.

Blurred vision is often one of the last signs of a cataract. The changes in your

They say that at all levels there are team sports and individual sports. But even individual sportspeople are surrounded by a team of family members, trainers and coaches, colleagues, competitors, who all play a part.

Sustaining a sports injury dislocates any sportsperson from their usual routine and team. This can be an unpleasant and disconcerting experience.

The recovery from a sports injury is a journey like a training program to prepare for an event or season. A new team should be formed around an injured sportsperson.

Family members, coaches and colleagues still have their role to play providing support and motivation.

General Practitioners co-ordinate care.

Physiotherapists and Exercise Physiologists are experts in the different phases of the recovery journey; they coach sportspeople in the appropriate exercises and retraining that evolve with healing.

The role of the surgeon is to enable optimal bone healing, repair or reconstruct injured ligaments or the connections between muscle, tendon, and bone. This provides the opportunity

lens increase over time with the lens becoming increasingly cloudy. Initially you may have a changing prescription in your glasses. Eventually new glasses won’t improve your vision any further.

Sunshine Coast Ophthalmologists are a referral-based service, if you experience any of the above symptoms, it is wise to consult either your GP or optometrist who can then refer you for assessment.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our lovely team on 5470 2400.

for smooth movement of the joints. We then set the parameters for activity as these structures heal, understanding the limits that healing tissue can withstand.

Our bodies heal predictably, but only at a certain speed.

The best operations are only part of the journey. Thereafter it is the time and effort the sportsperson invests in recovery and retraining, supported, and guided by their surrounding team that enables the best results. No one person is an expert in all the elements of recovery. No sportsperson is an island.

SKIN CANCERS ON EYELIDS Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer anywhere in the world, two to three times the rates in Canada, the US and the UK. In Australia, skin cancers account for around 80 per cent of all newly diagnosed cancers.

Most skin cancers are caused by exposure to the sun. Other risk factors include fair skin, advancing age, immunosuppression through disease or medication and cigarette smoking.

Skin cancer can occur anywhere on the body, and your eyes and eyelids are no exception. They vary in appearance from a scaly, non-healing sore to a new lump, spot or freckle or a mole that changes colour, thickness or shape. If you notice any new or changing lesions on or around the eyelids, see your general practitioner or optometrist for a referral in case it is skin cancer.

The eyelids are specialised structures

for protecting the eyes, draining tears and preventing the eyes from drying.

The functional anatomy of the eyelids is complex.

An ophthalmologist with oculoplastic experience who is familiar with the anatomy of the eyelids can diagnose and treat eyelid skin cancers Skin cancers are usually cured with surgery if detected early. Around the eyes, even a relatively small skin cancer could require significant eyelid surgery.

Small skin cancers are excised, and the resulting wound is sutured closed directly. Large skin cancers require reconstructive surgery, such as skin and tissue grafts or flaps.

If eyelid skin cancers are not treated early, extensive surgery, including removal of the eye and the surrounding tissues, may be required.

Prevention is always better than cure, so when you are in the sun on our beautiful Sunshine Coast, slip on your shirt, slop on your sunscreen, slap on your hat and slide on your sunglasses.

At Best Practice Eyecare, our ophthalmologist Dr Michael J Karpa has fellowship training in oculoplastic surgery and extensive experience in treating eyelid surgical diseases, including eyelid cancers.

‘ALL-AT-ONCE’: AN EXCITING NEW DENTAL SPECIALISTS’ COLLABORATION ON THE SUNSHINE COAST People with missing or broken-down teeth, often put off treatment due to dental anxiety, fear of dental impressions, a strong gag reflex, claustrophobia or time constraints. They may now have a solution.

Mrs L, a 60-year-old female patient, was treated by a team of Sunshine Coast specialists, Dr Ramman Oberoi and Dr Ian Wilson, using a digitised guided surgical approach – All At Once®, developed by Melbourne Prosthodontist Dr Philip Tan. Her existing compromised teeth were replaced by new implantsupported fixed bridges in a single surgical procedure in a day surgery setting in a hospital.

Popular procedures claiming to provide immediate teeth in reality provide them in 3-5 days, requiring

intervention and impressions in a post-surgery swollen and uncomfortable mouth. The temporary bridge installed then needs to be changed to final one in a few months. All At Once® however, offers instant teeth with removal of existing teeth, implants placements and final fixed bridges all done in one day under one procedure, with comparable costs and minimal time. Some costs may be covered by your Medicare and private health cover too.

If you are unhappy with your teeth or dentures and are considering options to replace them, contact us for a consultation or for more information on this exciting new treatment option.

SURGERY NOT ONLY SALVE FOR HIP, KNEE ARTHRITIS Before recommending surgery to someone suffering with hip or knee osteoarthritis, Sunshine Coast Orthopaedic Group recommends exhausting all nonoperative methods of treatment first.

These include physiotherapy, weight management, lifestyle modification, medication and potentially injection therapy.

We recommend a visit to a physiotherapist for strengthening and range-of-motion exercises to manage the symptoms of joint pain.

Maintaining a healthy and active lifestyle is vital, and you can also ask your GP to check your BMI and suggest effective methods of weight loss if necessary.

It is important to modify your activities if you suffer from joint pain.

Choose low-impact activities such as walking, swimming and cycling, rather than high-impact activities like running.

A good medication for joint pain is Panadol Osteo (or equivalent), but always check with your GP before taking any new medications.

There are also injections available for osteoarthritis.

Being educated about your condition is important, and here at Sunshine Orthopaedic Group we offer patient education seminars or alternatively our orthopaedic surgeons are here to discuss the best course of treatment for you.

SLEEP APNEA

ORTHOPAEDIC

Dispelling the myths about CPAP therapy

Radiofrequency Ablation for knee osteoarthritis

Are you a snorer and often struggling with fatigue? Sleep apnea affects millions as well as their partners and CPAP therapy is the gold standard for treatment. Still, common myths often deter people from doing something about it.

Myth 1: CPAP machines are loud.

Truth: Most modern CPAP devices are whisper quiet. Most of the time, you can’t even tell they are on. The newest masks are lightweight and if they are sized and fitted correctly this combination will transform the bedroom to a quiet tranquil space.

Myth 2: CPAP therapy is only for severe cases. Truth: Whether your sleep apnea is mild, moderate or severe, CPAP therapy benefits all levels. It effectively opens your airway, reducing snoring, improving sleep quality and enhancing quality of life.

Myth 3: CPAP therapy is only for old people. Truth: Sleep apnea can affect anyone, from children to the elderly.

Typically, we see people starting on CPAP therapy from as early as their late teens.

Don’t let misinformation hold you back. Chat with one of our clinicians free of charge about getting the mojo back in your life.

Chronic knee pain doesn’t have to be met with surgery or medication.

Radiofrequency ablation is a non-surgical procedure that involves the insertion of a needle-like probe into the skin. This probe delivers radiofrequency waves to target nerves that are causing pain.

Radiofrequency ablation is a safe and effective procedure with minimal recovery time. The results are demonstrating 12 months pain relief and functional improvement specifically for knee pain and osteoarthritis. RFA is especially beneficial to those seeking an alternative to surgery and are not getting the desired results from non-operative measures such as injection therapy and lifestyle modifications.

The procedure is completed in approximately 20 minutes, with sedation.

Unlike surgery RFA involves no incision.

The patient may experience some discomfort at the site for a short period, but this discomfort can be treated with common over-the-counter medication.

Sunshine Coast Orthopaedic Group has a team of health professionals with knowledge and expertise in radiofrequency ablation.

TAURUS (APR 21-MAY 21)

GEMINI (MAY 22-JUN 21)

CANCER (JUN 22-JUL 23)

With Mercury, Jupiter and Uranus hurtling through your sign, your energy levels are set on high and you’re feeling (uncharacteristically) impatient. But Pluto cautions you to be less hasty and a lot more strategic as you steer clear of quick-fixes.

It’s a busy week for gung-ho Geminis. Mercury (your boss planet) makes positive connections with unique Uranus, creative Neptune and powerful Pluto. Then Mercury transits into your sign (where it joins the sun). So, it’s important to cast personas aside.

You’re keen to retreat into your Crab cave as the sun visits your contemplation zone. So solo activities like meditation and yoga are favoured. But a friendship could veer off-course and shake you out of any sense of complacency. Your inner voice will help you.

LEO (JUL 24-AUG 23)

VIRGO (AUG 24-SEP 23)

LIBRA (SEP 24-OCT 23)

SCORPIO (OCT 24-NOV 22)

Va-va-voom Venus vamps into your sign (where it joins fiery Mars) so you’re keen to flirt up a storm and call in a few old favours. It’s also a terrific time to indulge in creative passions like cooking, drawing, decorating, renovating, gardening, music or craft projects.

Virgos are clever and capable – but are you confident enough for big-time success? The sun and Mercury are activating your career zone – but you won’t get ahead if you waste time making mountains out of molehills. Networking is favoured.

This week Mercury and Pluto boost your business brain, and you’ll feel more positive about your financial and professional future. But resist the urge to be precious about possessions and possessive of loved ones. Give family and friends plenty of freedom.

Prepare for a rather tricky week as Pluto opposes Venus, and people (or circumstances) frustrate your plans. Don’t let others hijack your career goals or derail your domestic dreams. No matter how challenging things become or how long it takes, you need to be the captain.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV 23-DEC 21)

CAPRICORN (DEC 22-JAN 20)

AQUARIUS (JAN 21-FEB 19)

PISCES (FEB 20-MAR 20)

With Venus and Mars both visiting fellow-fire sign Leo, your Sagittarian playfulness and sense of humour are highlighted this week. So, you’re keen to amuse others, as you play the role of the ribald raconteur. Mercury encourages you to communicate.

Powerful Pluto reverses back into your sign (until January 21, 2024).

So, you can expect unfinished business, thwarted (and then revived) ambitions plus deeply transformative experiences. Don’t let that deter you.

This week passion planet Mars and love planet Venus are both transiting through your relationship zone. Proactive partnerships and creative joint ventures are favoured, as you spark ideas off each other.

Expect the unexpected and prepare for a wild ride this week.

Do your best to assiduously avoid Piscean passivity and procrastination. Mercury, Jupiter and Uranus are all activating your learning and local environment zones. So, it’s time to be clever, confident and proactive as you set ambitious goals.

ith property prices and interest rates higher, buyers and investors are increasingly seeking out affordability, above average rental yields as well as sound prospects for capital growth, according to new research by Hotspotting.

Hotspotting Director Terry Ryder says the issue driving the decisionmaking of property consumers is affordability now more than ever.

“Over the past 12 to 18 months, when some markets across Australia have been struggling, the ones that have remained buoyant have been those areas where homebuyers and investors can find properties at attainable prices – with rising interest rates making this even more of an imperative,” Mr Ryder says.

“It’s not a coincidence that the capital cities that have remained busy and competitive recently are the cheapest ones – Perth, Adelaide, and Darwin. “Equally, the cities where markets dropped the most through this period were the most expensive ones – Sydney, Canberra, and Melbourne.”

Hotspotting General Manager Tim

Graham says regional Australia had generally performed better than capital cities because they had more affordable options for buyers of all kinds.

“With technology allowing more people to work remotely, more people have opted out of the big, congested, expensive cities and moved to smaller cities and to regional areas,” Mr Graham says.

“This has been happening for the past decade and has become more

visible in the past three years or so.

Mr Ryder says investors increasingly want to target locations where they can buy relatively cheaply, because these areas have higher yields, which are important to offset higher interest rates.

“The key objective is to find cheaper areas that offer above-average rental yields but also have the credentials for good capital growth. The good news is that is achievable,” he says.

“There’s a myth among many real

estate consumers that you can have good capital growth, or you can have high rental yields, but you can’t have both, so, you have to choose.

“I believe this is untrue. You can have the best of both worlds by choosing your locations intelligently.”

PROPERTY

ABSOLUTE WATERFRONT From page 38

I

n 2005 the legendary property man and long-time Brisbane Lord Mayor Clem Jones developed a parcel of land that sat directly on Caloundra’s meandering Pumicetone Passage, immediately guaranteeing unparalleled views and a genuine connection to the environment.

The 12 apartments that make up The Anchorage have been so tightly held that only a handful of sales have taken place.

Anchorage Seven, a large 403m2 home, is accessed via private lift, and features impeccable bespoke design made from the finest building materials.

From the high-grade timber panelling to the customised furniture and ocean-focused window configurations, this property is in a different league to almost any other apartment.

SURF REPORT with MWP’s man in the water

Righto, not many waves around but the conditions are simple amazing. Maybe do a walk in adventure to A bay? I remember going there about 40 years ago when it was a full adventure with the walk in for those who remember. The dodgy creek crossings, walking on a slippery log. Then you would walk out to a game of nude volleyball and prefect waves.

Fun times! Enjoy your weekend and keep your clothes on ... or not!
